It's actually pretty easy to understand. Heck from the very writings
found on the al Qaeda laptop, they're motivations are clear. They feel
that the insinuation of western culture is bad.

The soldiers offering candy to the children were basically the Serpent
in the Garden of Eden. Obviously the soldiers had to go. And it's easy
enough to presume a rationalization that children fawning over US
soldiers were irrevocably tainted and had to go too, and that it would
send a message to others not to associate with the troops.

Do I agree with it? No. But it's simple enough to understand.
